LET Us HAVE PEACE
no war JustifabIe Except War ON Err
rOneous Opinion.

no War Unsuitable Except War ON Err
rOneous Opinion.
The great Chieftain who lies buried at
Riverside, no doubt felt the full force of
the prayer:
Let us have peace"
He had learned that "Civil war leaves
nothing but tombs
The greatest military heroes have not
been those who shed blood for the love
it.
Wellington said, take my word for
it, if you had seen but one day of war, you
would pray to Almighty God that you
might never see such thing again.
The sentiment that war is "relic of
barbarism" and-as method of settling
international difierences-should be shelly
ed with other obsolete relics of darker
ages, is a growing one. The idea of arbi-
tration is more beftting modern civiliza-
ton.
But it is recognized that the sentiment
''Let us have peace must be given
broader meaning If its full benefit is to be
realized.
We see the catholicity which the trend
of modern thought develops in the efforts
for the union Of the churches, the striking
down of the barriers which have been a
hindrance to the advancement of the true
faith
1t is noticeable too, in the leniency,
growing yearly more marked, shown by
the medical schools toward each other
Time was, when a practitioner of one
school willingly, If not gladly, noted the
death of patient of physician of another
school. The brotherhood of man" ideas
of the present day took no root in the med
ical profession of a quarter of century
ago.
Now, physicians of the highest standing
admit, and dare publish to the world, their
belief in the efficacy Of that professional
bete nofr, the proprietary medicine.
The late Dr. ]. G. Holland, an educated
physician, some years ago wrote in Serb
aer's Magazine, of which he was editor:
1T is fact that many of the best propri-
etary medicines of the day are more sue
cessful than many physicians, and most OF
them were first discovered and used in
actual medical practice. >
Millions of people all over the globe
confirm this statement
The celebrated DIR. r. A. Gum, of the
Medical College of New York, in his pub
lished book, recommends the use of War
ner's safe cure in cases of bright's disease,
and other kidney disorders, and says he
knows the remedy is used by leading phy-
sieians. 1t not only cnres kidney diseases,
bat the many other common named diseases
which would not prevail were the kidneys
sound.
That great public teacher DR.. Dio
Lewis, had the courage to write to the
proprieto-s of Warmers safe cure, after
full investigation of its merits, "If found
myself the victim of a serious kidney
trouble, | should use your preparations.
The serious nature Of kidney disorders is
that they are the rea cause of nearly all
the diseases from which we suffer. If.
therefore, the kidneys are kept in health,
we shall escape all such diseases.
The world is growing more tolerant, as
intelligence increases; Grant but voiced
the growing sentiment when he prayed
LET us have peace, and Tennyson
builded better than he knew when he wrote:
Ring out old shapes of foul disease
Ring ont the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand years Of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace
